Centro Civico Colombiano's annual Colombian Independence Day Festival has been canceled due to debts owed to the city Parks Department, but health insurance company Healthfirst and elected officials will not be letting the community down for their holiday.
Healthfirst and Community Solutions, a group that produces outdoor events for nonprofits, will hold Festival de la Independencia Day Colombia Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at 93rd Street and Roosevelt Avenue in Jackson Heights.
William McCarthy, event planner for Community Solutions, said the new festival is to be a replacement for Centro Civico Colombiano's festival, which had been held for the last 26 years in Flushing Meadows Corona Park.
"We had some inkling that wasn't going to happen, and we wanted to make sure the community was able to celebrate Colombia," McCarthy said.
Centro Civico Colombiano's festival was canceled because the group owed $17,000 to the Parks Department.
"Parks will not discuss having an event with the group until their outstanding debt is paid in full," a spokeswoman said.
This is not the first time Healthfirst has reached out to the immigrant community. McCarthy said Healthfirst held a Colombian festival two years ago and also held a Cinco de Mayo Street Fair at the Elmhurst Hospital earlier this year and in 2010.
McCarthy said the July 23 festival will feature traditional music, Colombian foods and a full day of Colombian dance, with about eight to 12 performances.
"A complete array of Latino dance targeted at representing the country of Colombia," McCarthy said.
In addition, the festival will have a special pavilion set up at 93rd and Aske streets for seniors. McCarthy said the pavilion will have bingo and professional instructors teaching seniors how to salsa, samba, cha cha and zumba.
City Councilwoman Julissa Ferreras (D-East Elmhurst) and state Sen. Jose Peralta (D-East Elmhurst) support the event and have been getting the word out to their constituents, McCarthy said.
Since Jackson Heights used to be a largely Colombian community, McCarthy said the Independence Day events are important and exciting for neighborhood Colombians, and these events recognize the great things Colombians have done for the United States and for South America.
"They're very, very passionate about where they come from and are proud of where they come from," McCarthy said.

Lipscomb hires Casey Alexander as new men's coach
NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Lipscomb has hired Casey Alexander as the 18th head coach in the program's history, luring him away after spending the past two seasons at Stetson.
Athletic director Philip Hutcheson announced the hiring Saturday.
Alexander coached Stetson to an 11-7 finish in the Atlantic Sun this season, and he also is very familiar with Lipscomb after spending 16 years coaching with Rick Byrd at Belmont. He also played for the Belmont Bruins between 1992 and 1995 and was inducted into Belmont's Hall of Fame in 2005.
Byrd said in a statement that Alexander is as competitive as any player he ever coached and will be a great addition to Lipscomb.
Alexander says he's grateful to Lipscomb for giving him an opportunity to lead the program.

Cruise end - enroute to Mexico
We docked at Memphis in the early hours of this morning.
When I was coming down the lift for breakfast there were others in the lift. One woman pointed to the American Queen Steamboat logo a man had on his sweater, saying "I see you bought a jacket on the boat". The man replied, "It's not a jacket, it's a sweater. I had to buy something on this dump of a trip or I would freeze to death". This sums up ...

Bulk File Manager1.6
editor's review
Handling a large amount of files can prove to be a difficult and time-consuming task. However, applications like Bulk File Manager give you the possibility to greatly reduce time and increase efficiency when doing so.
Lightweight and easy to use
The main window is cleverly organized with tabs, each representing a specific function. A few fields need to be filled with the required details and with the press of a button the job is done. In case something does not go according to plan, an error log keeps track of every issue, offering necessary details about the occurrence of the problem.
Multiple options to manage files
There are several functions you can take advantage of. Some of the basic allow you to edit anything text related. Characters can be eliminated or added from a file name, as well as automatically replacing text to make it meet any requirement. Content of documents can also be replaced, but take caution when doing so, because the original file can be damaged in the process and if no backup is made, your file remains inaccessible.
A few maintenance options are available. With the help of a built in engine, you can run a quick scan to find duplicate files on your computer and get rid of them. Furthermore, documents you no longer need and don't want anybody else retrieving them, "File Shredding" gives you the possibility to do so.
Last but not least, you can make virtually anything on your computer fit onto any storage device, splitting files into volumes of predefined size or one of your choice.
To end with
Taking everything into consideration, we can say that Bulk File Manager does its job well. It may seem a little rough around the edges, but it's powerful enough to prove the contrary. If handling multiple files is a routine, make it a little easier with this lightweight utility.

SqlSpec will generate easy-to-read docs for any SQL Server, Oracle, DB2, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Analysis Server, or Access database. Given one or more connection strings, SqlSpec will generate documentation about all the tables, views, stored procedures, triggers, indexes, constraints, schemas, assemblies, CLR procedures, xml schema collections, synonyms, symmetric and asymmetric keys, user defined types, and user defined functions in your database. It will also tell you what the dependencies are (which tables point to other tables via foreign keys, which tables are used by which stored procedures, etc.) It will show the code for each trigger, view, user defined function, check constraint, and stored procedure in the database. SqlSpec generates output in HTML and CHM format. You can configure it to add external objects (such as web pages, COM objects, and other external code) to the documentation as well. You can even incorporate such objects into the dependency graphs generated by SqlSpec. With SqlSpec, it is easy to keep documentation in sync with the actual database, since you can just run SqlSpec on your databases and your documentation gets updated.

Released by: Alpha Blue Archives
Released in: 2006
Director: Zebedy Colt
Cast: Zebedy Colt, Nancy Dare, Spaulding Gray, Marlene Willoughby, Gloria Leonard, Jean Jennings, Susan McBain, Jamie Gillis, Terri Hall
Year: Various
The Movies:
A sort of 'enfant terrible' of the seventies smut movie scene, Zebedy Colt (sometimes credited as Zebediah Colt or Zepety Colt) had a penchant for making some of the finest and nastiest roughies to emerge from the era but was somehow able to infuse a certain sort of artistry into his work, despite the content and the obviously limited means with which he had to work with. Colt supposedly died in 2004 but his work remains popular thanks to his knack for pacing and for truly depraved set pieces. Alpha Blue Archives had the good sense to compile three of his features for the fourth entry in their Cult 70s Porno Director series of releases (alongside the ranks of such notables like Doris Wishman and Ray Dennis Steckler!), here's how it all plays out...
The Farmer's Daughter (58 Minutes, 1973)
The earliest of his directorial efforts (credited as his first feature... whether or not this is true is debatable) stars a few notable performers of the time. In addition to showing up in front of the camera himself, Colt case Gloria Leonard, Marlene Willoughby, Nancy Dare, Spaulding Gray and Susan McBain in this grizzly pornographic take on the home invasion/Last House On The Left style of horror film.
Clocking in at a lean, mean hour in length, the film tells the story of group of escaped thugs, lead by Gray, that terrorize a farmer and his hot daughters and force them to do despicable things at gun point. There's rape, incest, brutality and perversions galore and the film has a rough, primal and at times almost amateurish feel to it that makes it quite uncomfortable viewing. The thugs, brandishing rifles, force the mother (Gloria Leonard) to have sex with her three daughters and at one point the father (Colt himself) finds himself on the receiving end of some oral gratification thanks to his youngest girl. Twisted stuff. And did I mention the rape? Cause there's lots of rape in here, most of it at gun point and done with a whole lot of verbal and physical abuse.
While I suppose you could make the argument that maybe the film is supposed to be a parody of some of the rough horror movies that were popular at drive-in's and grindhouses around the country at the time, this one is play pretty much completely straight and is devoid of any humor or really any socially redeeming content whatsoever. If sleaze is what you're after, this one definitely delivers.
Shot at some remote farm location presumably somewhere outside of New York City, which usually served as Colt's base of operations, this one ranks up there with some of the nastier films in Colt's regimen, and considering that this is the man who made Sex Wish (where he plays a psychopath rapist) and Unwilling Lovers (in which Colt plays a retarded man who enjoys raping corpses), that statement does count for something. Despite all the wanton and completely gratuitous sleaze in the film, it is well made when you consider its target audience. It delivers on all counts everything that Colt likely wanted it to - he set out to make a rough and nasty fuck film and that's exactly what Farmer's Daughter is. Interestingly enough, while he doesn't come out and justify what happens to the girls at the hands of the ex-convicts, in an opening scene we do see them completely humiliating the ranch hand and so in that regard he does set them up as bitchy little things who are hardly as pure as they'd like to think they are.
SHARON (69 Minutes, 1976)
The second feature stars Jean Jennings, Susan McBain, Jamie Gillis, and Colt himself and while it never reaches the levels of depravity that Farmer's Daughter hits, it's still got its fair share of filth to give. Directorial credit for this Harvest Moon Production is given to one Navred Reef and a title graphic alerts us to the fact that this one was shot on location in Atlanta Georgia, the most exotic of locales.
It starts with a girl named Susan (Jean Jennings) telling her dad (Colt) to get out of the shower. His response? He opens the curtain and jerks his cock for her before pulling her into the shower with him, commenting on her tits which are now showing right through her white wet t-shirt, and singing 'Oh my darling Dixie Twirler.' This is not a normal family relationship. From there he slides into her and fucks her in the shower at which point he declares 'World War II was never like this!' They move to the living room and carry on where they left up, as quick as they can be, before momma gets home. As twisted as this scene is, Jennings is hotter than a three dollar pistol and she's obviously into the scene.
From there we meet Sharon (Susan McBain), who misses her bus home from school. She has to walk home, but a stranger pulls up and offers her a ride. She accepts, and they smoke some weed on the way. Once she's high, he decides that rather than take her home he'd rather take her to a party that he knows of. They arrived, and the party goers are getting down to a really bad cover of 'Dancing In The Street.' When they arrive, Gillis is on the couch with two girls and a scary fat guy is drinking Bud out of a can. More weed is smoked and an orgy breaks out and Sharon wanders around and checks out the action. She sees some guy/girl action, some girl/girl action which soon turns into a three-way, and another three way in which Gillis shares a brunette with another guy. After a bit more orgy action, Sharon gets too hot and has to take matters into her own hands. She's interrupted by another girl who is only too happy to help her.
Meanwhile, Susan is sitting on her bed alone, still horny from the earlier events. She strips and masturbates, finally deciding to shove a dildo up her ass and then her baton up her snatch. Daddy has just come home and his pal Leroy is tagging along. They walk in on Susan doing her thing, and as you can imagine, they decide to help her out by having a three way with her (Daddy comments that it's funny what a little vodka and beer will do to your libido, while his daughter goes down on him!).
Back at the party, Sharon hops into bed with the guy who gave her the ride in the first place, and they get it on. once they're done, in echoey narration, she tells him how when she was younger she was molested by a lumberjack and how her sister got fucked by a salesman (Ashley Moore) at the Dixie Motel. We see both of these scenes in flashback. After the flashback we see Sharon share a guy with another girl, sucking him to a big finish. After that she finally gets dropped off at home, and tosses her copy of The Joy Of Sex into the trash, as she no longer needs it.
VIRGIN DREAMS (72 Minutes, 1977)
The third and final film on the disc stars Jean Jennings and Susan McBain again, as well as Terri Hall, Gloria Leonard, and of course, Colt himself. The late Wade Nichols shows up in this Cinema 100 Presentation. The movie starts by zooming in on Nancy (Jennings) who is laying in bed naked. The sheets are slowly pulled off of her body, as a male narrator talks about how bad he wants her body.
Two pairs of male hands caress her naked form as the narration continues and we realize she's having an erotic dream. She sucks both of the men (we never see their faces) and the narrator starts to get pretty frenzied, telling her to 'suck it suck it suck it' and sounding all the world like some sort of maniacal super villain. She wakes up screaming, but soon goes back to bed - seems she's been having strange dreams like this a lot.
We then learn that she's vacationing with her boyfriend, Danny (Wade Nichols), and her parents (Colt and McBain). They talk and we learn that she's got some real hang ups when it comes to men and sex in general. Mom and dad aren't too happy that their daughter is such a prude so they decide she needs a sexual education. Once they agree on that, McBain gives Colt head in the garden while some classical music swells up to insane levels.
She wakes up and meets Danny at the pool but is shocked to find him skinny dipping. She chastises him, but he finally convinces her to take off her top. She obliges but he can't get her to go any further, no matter how hard he pleads. She wants him to love her but she won't put out until they're married (this doesn't stop her from dropping the clothes and standing naked in front of him). They sort of meet half way at this point - he pulls it while she stands there nude with her eyes closed.
Later that day she dreams about Danny chasing her naked through the garden and then sitting on a motorbike and whacking off (you need to see this - it's pretty funny). He goes down on her and then he bangs her doggy style out there in the woods beside the chopper. She wakes up all hot and bothered, completely distraught.
Mom and dad talk to her but it does no good, she's just messed up about all of it. She goes back to sleep and has a dream about her dad banging her mother and another chick, and then a later dream about fondling naked penis paintings in the nude. One of the painted schlongs turns into Danny's member and she swallows it down to the short and curlies before full on boffing the guy. This turns into a lesbian scene which in turn, turns into an orgy with a few participants all taking turns touching and fondling her on a big brass bed out in the middle of the lawn. Back in the physical world, still asleep, she moans and gets on all fours and bends over like she's really taking it.
Now sexually reawakened but still physically asleep, she wakes up, finds Danny sleeping naked on the couch, and wakes him up by sitting on his face. She blows him and they screw, finally moving to the pool where she sucks him some more and he finally gets to slide it into her via some nifty underwater action that really does look pretty cool, what with her golden locks flowing all over the place.
When it's all over, she meets with mom and dad over a drink on the patio, tells her the good news, and then falls back asleep for one more dream in which she dances among flowers in a pretty blue dress licking her lips before the title card finally comes up that says 'The End.'
Unfortunately it's been brought to my attention that this print of Virgin Dreams is cut by roughly ten minutes and that a fairly lengthy S&M between Colt and Leonard is missing.
All three films on this DVD are presented fullframe, as most readers probably expected. While it's hard to say for sure if they were shot this way or not, we can make a reasonable assumption based on how things look that fullframe is the intended aspect ratio for both of the film on this disc. Compositions on both films seem to be okay, and they've been taken from what appear to be a reasonably good sources. The images are scratched and beaten up but watchable.
Of the three films, Virgin Dreams definitely looks the best with Farmer's Daughter and Sharon coming in somewhere behind it in terms of quality. All three are completely watchable despite the flaws in the source material and for a tape to DVD transfer, Virgin Dreams actually looks genuinely good with nice color reproduction and a lot more detail in the image than you'd probably expect to see. The flesh tones look like flesh tones and the picture isn't nearly as washed out. The other two films are definitely rougher, lacking the definition and nice colors of Virgin Dreams, but they'll do if you know what you're in for and your expectations are held in check.
For the three features on the disc, it's mono all the way. While the quality isn't mind blowing, everything is audible but be prepared to turn the volume up a bit as the levels are lower than normal. The funky score and wonderfully inept dialogue comes through just fine, however and while this isn't a remarkable set of mixes, they get the job done well enough.
Well, considering there are three features on here it's probably not worth complaining about, but this release is completely barebones aside from the menu screen. It's a shame that there aren't any trailers here for any of the three films but who knows if they even still exist.
The Final Word:
This one has it all - the sheer depravity of Farmer's Daughter, the age related perversions of Sharon and the unusually playful sexiness of Virgin Dreams. The presentation isn't half bad considering the source and the performances and cast lists for all three features are pretty damn solid. Of the Cult 70s Porno Director series releases, a strong line through and through, the Zebedy Colt disc is definitely in the top tier.

I love the guys at Gas Monkey. I am always laughing because Aaron's beard is almost bigger then he is. I think that chinese lady Sue who does the seats etc for them should work for them, she is hilarious.

I don't care what anyone says, I like the Gas Monkey guys way more than Jesse James or PJD or OCC any day. They are more "real".

Richard definitely knows his cars, but I really like Aaron's vision as far as the mods for them. He makes them cool without going overboard. Sometimes though, it seems that Richard is in too much of a hurry to flip the cars so he ends up kicking what could be a cool ride to the curb because he doesn't want to spend the time or money on it. I like to see them get a car and really take the time and money and make something super kick azz.

Sen. Chris Murphy said Friday he is worried that the Syria resolution making its way through the Senate could drag the United States into a broader conflict that could last a decade.
Mr. Murphy, Connecticut Democrat, warned that the resolution — which authorizes a limited strike against the Assad regime for its alleged use of chemical weapons as well as support for rebel forces fighting there — could make the situation on the ground "worse, not better."
"If Assad responds with more ferocious strikes against his own people or against our allies in the region, it is hard to understand how that makes the situation better," Mr. Murphy said on MSNBC's "Morning Joe," adding that he worries about counter strikes against Israel and other allies in the region.
"It also commits us to a long-term lethal arming of the rebels, and I just don't understand how this doesn't turn into a long-term civil war even after Assad falls. I just don't think the United States is pretty good at trying to pull the political strings in the Middle East. It is I think something we should've learned over the past ten years," he said.
Mr. Murphy voted against the resolution, which narrowly passed out of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee this week on a 10-7 vote.
Mr. Obama has recently called Mr. Murphy in an attempt to assure him that the strikes will not turn into a wider conflict.
Mr. Murphy said Friday the decision of whether to strike the Assad regime to punish it for the use of is a "certainly a close call."
"But at the end, I worry this could actually degrade the situation on the ground and commit the United States to an engagement that could last a decade," he said.

Many upstaters are fuming over the recent refusal by Gov. Andrew Cuomo, a Democrat, to lift a 6-year-old de facto moratorium on hydraulic fracturing for oil and gas. The industry is booming in neighboring Pennsylvania but been stunted in an upstate region, which is struggling from the loss of manufacturing jobs.
The Cuomo administration is waiting until next year for the results of a state health study, but Mr. Bergener said those in the Southern Tier and other areas that would benefit from oil and gas drilling suspect a political motivation.
"The theory is that our current governor doesn't want upstate to grow because then you'd get more Republicans," Mr. Bergener said.
Upstate conservatives also were steamed over the governor's Jan. 17 declaration that pro-lifers "have no place in the state of New York."
Meanwhile, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio's proposal for a tax increase on wealthy residents to pay for universal pre-kindergarten in the five boroughs has been criticized by state officials, including Mr. Cuomo, who say it would widen the gap between upstate and downstate.
"I know the 'tale of two cities.' The answer to the tale of two cities is not to create two states," Mr. Cuomo said in a WNYC radio interview Friday.
Of course, that's where he and members of the two-regions coalition disagree.
"It's an unusual idea," said Mr. Bergener. "I've searched and I can't find anyone else who's tried this before. So we're the first."

School Discipline
Talk to a Local School Law Attorney
Enter Your Zip Code to Connect with a Lawyer Serving Your Area
Special Considerations
The federal Gun-Free Schools Act of 1994 requires students to be expelled for at least a year if they bring a gun to school.
Federal laws forbid race and sex discrimination in schools. You may challenge school disciplinary action if you think it's related to race or gender bias by school officials.
Under the federal Individuals with Disabilities Education Act students with disabilities can't be suspended for more than 10 consecutive days unless special procedures are followed.
A disabled student has a right to testing for behavioral problems. The school may then have to provide support to help resolve conduct problems.
If you believe your child was unfairly disciplined because of racial or disability issues, you can file a complaint with the Office for Civil Rights of the U.S. Department of Education. Your complaint must be filed within 180 days of the discriminatory action.
Should You Hire an Attorney?
It's a very good idea to hire an attorney to represent your child. An attorney can help ensure that relevant information is presented to school representatives and that correct procedures are followed.
The help of an attorney is especially important if there's any possibility of criminal charges. You child could be charged criminally for such things as assault, or alcohol, drug or weapons possession.
You don't want your child to make statements in a school hearing that might harm a later criminal investigation. Your child doesn't have to answer questions asked by the school or the police.
A student breaking public school rules may also be considered a neglected child. An attorney familiar with juvenile rights can help you stay out of hot water with local child or social services advocates.
Questions for Your Attorney
- What can I do if I think my child's misbehavior at school is due to a medical or emotional disability?
- Can you negotiate a deal with school officials to have my child do community service to avoid being expelled from school?
- Can an attorney help even though attorneys aren't allowed at school hearings?

People with fair skin and limited sun exposure in the winter are most susceptible. With increasing sun exposure, this type of light sensitivity usually decreases over time. But the same rash may recur next spring after a winter without sun exposure.
Prevention -- Using sunblock and limiting sun exposure can reduce the risk of PMLE.
Treatment -- Cool compresses, hydrocortisone cream and anti-inflammatory medications (Advil, Motrin, others) can help relieve symptoms. PMLE usually clears up on its own in seven to 10 days. When symptoms don't improve, patients should check with a doctor to consider other conditions or possible allergies.
Poison ivy and poison oak: Contact with these plants causes red, swollen skin, blisters and severe itching within days or weeks of exposure. These plants produce an oily substance called urushiol, which causes an allergic reaction in most people. Urushiol can stick to almost anything, including clothes, pet fur, and even gardening tools.
Prevention -- Avoidance is the best prevention. Since leaves from both plants grow in groups of three, a helpful catch phrase to remember is "leaves of three, let them be." For high-risk activities -- hiking or camping -- some dermatologists recommend an over-the-counter skin product that contains bentoquatam, which prevents urushiol from penetrating the skin.
Treatment -- Immediately washing with soap and water after exposure can help. For a mild rash, cool showers, calamine lotion or hydrocortisone cream can relieve symptoms. For severe rashes, or rashes that involve the face, eyes or genitals, a doctor's care is advised. Prescription medications, such as an oral corticosteroid, may be needed to reduce itching and swelling.

Kapital: For playing pool
This nightclub is located in kabalagala area, an area full of places to go out.
From the street, Kapital seems to be a small and dirty place... but that's a false image, as it is one of the biggest nightclubs in Kampala, and where there are at least 7 pool tables where you can spend all the evening and night playing.
There are several TV screens in it as well, where you can enjoy some football matches. Mainly from the Premier League.
Rock Garden: Stressing
Rock garden is located at Speke Hotel.
There are two areas in it, the restaurant and the nightclub.
The nightclub is partly open-air, so here you can enjoy the fantastic weather that Uganda has.
The music is international, and the place is quite big, althought in the weekends use to be packed.
The bad point, or good for some people, is that when you haven't even had time yet for ordering a drink you have been "welcomed" by several girls. It is quite stressing, as you'll have all the time some girls talking with you asking for drinks and "other" things...
I have no idea: Find a bar......
Africans do like their cold beer. Wherever you are you're sure to find a place selling some. One of the places in this photo is bar. I have no idea what it was cold. We were the only customers that night.
Muyenga Road, Kampala
Unfortunately I don't have a picture for this one but we stumbled upon this great road in Kampala while ina taxi one night. Great number fo bars one one street. Some serving food and greta music playing all around. This a great place to spend an evening.
Dress Code: Whatever you want.
Just Kicking: Sports for the armchair sportsperson
This is a lively bar in an area with lots of restaurants etc. It shows most English Premiership games as well as rugby etc, so a proper sports bar. You can sit inside and watch the box, or outside on the patio. It's a lively place with a nice atmosphere.
Rock Garden Cafe: Drinks, dancing, late nights etc
This place is at Speke's Hotel in Kampala. You can either sit outside just watching the world (and the goings-on inside), or stand inside where you find a huge bar and a dancefloor. It is a lively place, lots of Kamapala's young and beautiful people can be seen strutting their stuff on the dancefloor ....
if you can talk you can sing and If you can walk you can dance. Now then, off to the old industrial area to Club Silk and/or Ange Noir. The 2 Disocthekues are relatively close to each other.
If you want you can stay in Equatorial Hotel and go Lords, a quiet exclusive location.
Dress Code: just be cute.
Live and good
Kampalas´night life comprises of discos, Casinos, theater, beach parties and live bands.
I recommend a visit to the theater or one of the top live bands. The shows are lively and will fascinate you. English is widely used in shows so that you don´t need to worry about the language.
Dress Code: In top discos you have to be well dressed.
The Vision Empire in Mbarara: The Vision Empire in Mbarara
Actually, it ain't so unique. It looks very much (eeriely identical actually) to every other nightclub that I went to in Kampala, but it is the only one in Mbarara, and everyone you meet in town will ask you whether you've been there or not. On fridays you could get a bottle of Club for a 1000 shillings, so that was a decent deal.
Just Kicking, Al's Bar: Just Kicking, Al's Bar
Great atmosphere, with both locals and mzungus. sport-mad barstaff and they will show all major sporting events if they can get it. pool, darts etc. Beer quite cheap too..........fantastic sausages and good biltong too.
Al's bar -> how do I describe this place? Anyone who has been to Kampala must have been here. One of the wildest bars I have ever been to anywhere....period. It is really a nightclub/bar which is open from about 10pm to about 8am. Great music (rock, pop etc), beer is reasonable, good food until late, wild, wild people! Guys, if you are white and unattached, you will have half of Kampala's girls hanging off you! I kid you not. Luckily I went here with my girlfriend but I didn't escape their attentions! if you can get past this, you can have a brilliant time here. The clientele is both locals and foreigners. Ask a taxi driver to take you to a place called Half London and you'll be there! This place is a riot, don't miss it!!
Dress Code: None really
Didn't do this much (since I...
Didn't do this much (since I was living in a little village with no electricity or running water), but I'll tell you what I know. I've been to Ange Noir, a club in the industrial area. It was a lot of fun and full of young, energetic Ugandans dancing to some good European, American, and African music. Club Silk and Sensations are similar, so I hear.
If you get the chance, go to an African concert. Some of my favorite artisits are Lucky Dube, Kanda Bongo Man, Luciano, Afrigo Band, and Ndere Dance Troupe. If they are performing then I highly recommend going.
As mentioned above, attending a cultural dance concert by the Ndere Dance Troupe is HIGHLY recommended. They perform at the Nile Hotel once a week (call or ask at the front desk). Admission is cheap and you can enjoy a nice beer while you're sitting outside under the start listening to the wonderful beat of Ugandan drums.
Drink Nile Special
My number on nightlife tip is to drink Nile Special. The national beer of Uganda. So good I brought some home. It didn't last long though.......
Kampala Casino: Gambling around Kampala
The most popular Casino in Kampala is situated in the heart of the city on Kimathi avenue.
Dress Code: strictly smart
Gaba Beach: Beach party
Sit back and relish the evening breeze on live sounds and waves. Savour the delicious fried sweet water fish as you watch the sun going down.
Dress Code: From smart to casual

When the idea to place full body scanners in airports was initially mentioned, one of the arguments against its installation was the invasion of privacy. To counteract that argument, the government assured that the machines would not have the capability to record or store images. Well, it seems that this assurance was short lived.
The Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC) has uncovered information that proves the machines have stored over 2,000 photos from the airport body scans. Read this letter from Transportation Security Administration (TSA) admitting to the storing of images. Additionally, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the US Marshals Service "have been forced to admit publicly that the machines" have these capabilities. However, TSA claims the storing and recording function is disabled when they install the machines.
Besides the retention of body scans, passengers that have gone through the scanning process voice concerns regarding their ability to choose whether to be scanned. Initially, officials stated that the full body scanning would be optional and that a pat-down could be done instead (based on the passengers choice). However, many passengers are not being given the choice. Read some passenger's complaints.
